A long summer of disobedience was about to be paid for… Sarah and Tim had agreed early in their she would always be held accountable for her behavior. She would be subject to both his guidance and his discipline, and follow him as the leader of their marriage. There were numerous terms for the sort of relationship they had decided was right for them. Regardless of what it was called, one thing was Sarah submitted to her strict, but loving, husband. Far from being the only wife who often had to endure the shame and twisted arousal than results from a hard spanking over her husband’s knee, Sarah was one of the many wives of the very special community of White Valley. A distinct and all-encompassing Taken In Hand/Head of Household ethos marked life in the remote, but beautiful mountain town nestled high in the Cascades. But agreeing to surrender her body to her handsome husband, and the—often painful—realities of what came with it was not an easy path to take. The rules and rituals laid down by her husband governed her day to day life. And the gorgeous Sarah was about to experience the consequences of a wife in White Valley who pushed her innate feistiness and defiancé just a little too far with her demanding alpha husband.
